The importance of tourism:

Tourism includes international tourism and domestic tourism, which are different for different audiences, but their nature and functions are basically the same. Tourism in economically developed countries generally starts from domestic tourism and gradually develops into international tourism. Some developing countries are economically backward and need foreign exchange for economic construction, most of which start with international tourism.

Domestic tourism and international tourism are closely linked unity, which can promote each other, complement each other and develop together through overall planning and reasonable arrangement. Tourism can meet people's growing material and cultural needs. Through tourism, people can have a rest, broaden their horizons, increase their knowledge and promote the development of social production.

The development of tourism is based on and restricted by the development level of the whole national economy, and at the same time, it directly and indirectly promotes the development of relevant departments of the national economy, such as commerce, catering services, hotels, civil aviation, railways, highways, posts and telecommunications, daily light industry, arts and crafts, gardens and so on. And urge these departments to continuously improve and perfect various facilities, increase service items and improve service quality. With the development of society, tourism has increasingly shown its important position in the national economy.
